What the research says

There have been hundreds of peer-reviewed and controlled studies showing that hyperbaric oxygen helps heal each of the conditions we treat. The research generally says that hyperbarics:

Increases oxygen in tissues by up to 1,200%.

This increased oxygen dissolves into hard-to-reach interstitial fluid, lymph, and cerebrospinal fluids, providing a greater opportunity for healing.

Beneficially influences gene expression.

Decreases the expression of 4,000 inflammatory genes and those coded for cell death. Increases the expression of 8,101 genes coded for growth, repair hormones and anti-inflammatory genes.

Improves cell growth. Strengthens immunity.

Stimulates the growth of new blood vessels in locations of the body with reduced circulation. Stimulates the release of stem cells. Strengthens the immune system. Increases superoxide dismutase, a free-radical scavenger, enabling the body to fight disease and infection.
